        <h1>Create fillable forms</h1>
        <p>ONLYOFFICE Document Editor allows you to effortlessly create <b>fillable forms</b> in your documents, e.g. agreement drafts or surveys.</p>
        <p>Save the resulting form as a <b>DOCXF</b> file, and you will have a form you can still edit, revise or collaborate on. To make a form fillable and to restrict file editing by other users, save it as a <b>PDF</b> file. Please refer to <a href="https://helpcenter.onlyoffice.com/ONLYOFFICE-Editors/ONLYOFFICE-PDF-Editor/UsageInstructions/FillingOutForm.aspx" target="_blank" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">form filling instructions</a> for further details.</p>
        <p class="note"><b>DOCXF</b> is a new <b>ONLYOFFICE</b> format that allows to create fillable forms. Use <b>ONLYOFFICE Document Editor</b> either online or desktop to make full use of form-associated elements and options.</p>
        <p>You can also save any existing <b>DOCX</b> file as a <b>DOCXF</b> to use it as a form. Go to the <b>File</b> tab, click the <b>Download as...</b> or <b>Save as...</b> option on the left side menu and choose the <b>DOCXF</b> icon. Now you can use all the available form editing functions to create a form.</p>
        <p>It is not only the form fields that you can edit in a <b>DOCXF</b> file, you can still add, edit and format text or use other <b>Document Editor</b> functions.</p>
        <p>Creating fillable forms is enabled through user-editable objects that ensure overall consistency of the resulting documents and allow for advanced form interaction experience.</p>
        <p>Currently, you can insert editable <em>plain text</em> fields, <em>combo boxes</em>, <em>dropdown lists</em>, <em>checkboxes</em>, <em>radio buttons</em>, assign designated areas for <em>images</em>, as well as create <em>email address</em>, <em>phone number</em>, <em>date and time</em>, <em>zip code</em>, <em>credit card</em> and <em>complex</em> fields. Access these features on the <b>Forms</b> tab that is available for <b>DOCXF</b> files only.</p>
        <div class="note">There are tips for each form field to facilitate creating a fillable form.</div>
